Apple has officially announced its slate of new games coming to Apple Arcade in October, with four new titles set to expand the subscription service’s library. The month’s biggest release is undoubtedly NBA 2K26 Arcade Edition, which lands on October 16. Also arriving is Piffle+, a charming arcade puzzle game from Hipster Whale, the minds behind the hit game Crossy Road. The inclusion of such a well-known children’s brand highlights Apple’s strategy of making Apple Arcade a family-friendly service with content suitable for everyone. While Apple Arcade was initially known for its exclusive indie darlings, it has increasingly become home to big-name IPs and established franchises.
